Melissa Urban’s (CEO of The Whole30) experience of chronic illness forced her to accept her body’s limitations. You are going to love her practical advice for setting healthy boundaries as a way to protect our relationships, manage our limited capacity (especially for those of us navigating chronic pain or illness or caregiving), and remind ourselves of our inherent worth (regardless of how much you can do).

In this episode, Kate and Melissa discuss: 

• How boundaries help us better live inside our limitations
• The signs that a better boundary is needed 
• How to manage the awkwardness of saying no 
• How the Spoon Theory helps us understand limited capacity

CW: sexual abuse, addiction
